I shall be attending again. Hopefully we will not have a big pile up on the first corner again.

Can make any day and might think about camping/hotel over night.

Sent an email off today see whats availiable on site or locally.
If everyone comes we will have doubled last years turnout

REPLY FROM DONNINGTON

We have a campsite here at Donington over at Coppice Corner. There are toilet blocks with cold running water but no electricity. It is free of charge for that weekend.
Thank you
There is a bar on site too in the paddock area.

Shaun,

Just letting you know I'm still going and will be camping at the track. I will be bring my cousin along as he saw a few races last year and wants to go this year as well.

Do you know if we get a discount for watching both days of racing?

Thanks,
John
